Well gently caress these guys for getting me excited about a COD game again. I liked pretty much everything I saw during the reveal - exo, pick 13, modded scorestreaks, whatever those packages are that give you bling'd gear every so often - all great.


My only complaint is that they are using the same narrow font and color (white) for the "+100" kill notification as BO2, which always blends into the background and makes it harder for me to see my righteous point total for nuking a bunch of guys off of a dom point. I really wish they would go back to the MW3 / MW2 yellow style, with a wider and larger font. A minor complaint.

Also, I see there is no customizable player cards? I always liked the fun cards like "Death from Above" "No.", "To Serve and Protect", etc. which were in MW2 and MW3. There was always fun challenges associated with each. Here's hoping they have new challenges this year as well.


Bottom line: CAN'T WAIT TO COD WITH YOU ON THE XBONE BROS. hopefully it'll be like those good ol' BO2 / MW3 days (or MW2 days, for those who go back that far.)

I can't wait to be back with my boys. Only reason I'm spending money on another console is for the remnants of the night krew.

Pretty much the same. I wouldn't buy the game if we couldn't get some good groups going. Although, Ghosts was pretty sad. We'd be lucky to get one group going after a month or so of playing.

IM DAY DAY IRL posted:

I don't know what you're talking about. I had a few months of fun games, specifically with Mascot who was coincidentally online most of the times I was looking for games. As dreadful as the implementation and ranking system worked Clan Wars were a great rallying cry for all the BOYS prior to us getting completely buttfucked by being put in divisions full of clans with 100 fully active players vs. our 20-30 semi-regular players.

I guess what I'm remembering is the MW3 days when we could easily have 4x6 person teams rolling at any given time. I'm not saying we couldn't get groups together in Ghosts (although admittedly I got bored after two months) but it was no where near what we used to get in previous versions.

What the gently caress happened in the first 15 seconds there?
It looked like the dude was railed through a wall/glitched and teleported.

Drink every time you hear "epic".

I don't think these announcers could be more annoying if they tried.

Have they announced the nature of clan functionality for AW? As in, will it actually be easy to search and invite clan members ingame, and have more than 99 people in your clan?


Secondly, who is playing on XBone on the Monday (Day ZERO BOYS as it were) - I know wazzit and I are poopsocking, but who else?

Which one of these guys are Bloghouse? This is hilarious.

Also fun running around with the KF5 and having I'M A DOCTOR IRL yelling at me to only run UAVs all morning.

gently caress this. We can't even get a game to load without locking up in the searching for games screen. I'm out for the night.

If you're playing on a bad map and want to pass the time, It's pretty entertaining asking Belt the difference between ecstasy and MDMA.

Ha I watched that youtube trailer and having not played since launch, it seems like the devs just said "gently caress it throw in everything."


Cautiously optimistic for BO3, but my last favorite COD was MW3. I loved that London map, and the killstreaks were the last ones I remember really enjoying. Then they had to gently caress with it, getting rid of care packages, nerfing predators, etc. etc.
